And now for a piece of terrain that can be used with the Sassanids - but I have made it as a generic piece that could be used for much of the periods covered by the ancient armies that I have.   I forget where the frain siloes are from - but the grain wheeel and oven are Grand Manner I think.  The figures are from Eureka.







And one with both pieces of terrain together.

And now a bunch of cavalry and foot units that I have ben working on over the past few months in the background.

Firstly, four bases of medium cavalry Clibinarii and two bases of light cavalry with bows (Aventine and Gripping Beast).



Then six bases of heavy foot levy spearmen (A&A Miniatures).



And finally the 'rest' - a skirmish base, another levy spearmen base and two archer bases (A&A, Gripping Beast and Aventine respectively)



As before, all are based for Impetus.

Sorry I have not been updating here for a little while. 

So a quick family photo to show where I was in early December.



The colours in this second photo are not as good - but it gives more of a feel of the range of units painted this year.



Progress will slow down on this for a while as I focusing in a new Sudan project in 10mm for the next few months.  As some wargamers do, I still have a box containing almost as much lead again as shown in these photos.  I will certainly do quite a bit of it as I want more medium cavalry and elephants as examples.  I have already done some dismounted knights and will put them up shortly.
